Stock RE92's, feathered and wasted! Going to be changing soon to Kuhmo 217's.
Stock struts/springs Whiteline 18-22mm RSB (currently set at 20mm) Whiteline endlinks. Stock alignment settings -- whatever that is from the factory. Probably will get that checked out/changed when I get my new tires. I'll probably go the poor-man's coil over setup with AGX's and Ground Controls/Eibach springs, but that'll be for when my stock suspension is worn out! LaterZ! Darren!! |

What JJ described is classed as 'STR'. What Shawn has is 'STS'. You can also go for 'GS' - the stock class. Figure out where you want to compete first, then ask more directed questions about legal setups.
I suggest STS. STR is fairly dead in most places. GS is also good, but limits to a great extent what you can mod on your car. Of course, there's also 'S-Mod' is you have boost. Take yer pick. - Steve |

Thanks guys! I think I am going with kumho. I guess setup is different for everybody depending how the person drives. I am going to have my own setup for suspension/handling, but I also got few good tips from you all, thanks!
